As for doing the CCV tubes, I’ve done them a few times now so I have the process down. First time can be frustrating, if you do tackle it. Start on the passenger side to understand how they clip onto the intake manifold. If you’re keeping the car for awhile you can go the extra mile and wrap them in a silicone tape as well for added protection.

I think these CCV tubes are basically a maintenance item that should just be done with every spark plug change, due to their brittle nature and high potential for vacuum leak. I've ordered two pre-cat O2 sensors and both lower CCV hoses, will try and tackle the job once the parts arrive. Thank you for the help, and I will keep this thread updated on how things work out.
